The viscosity coefficient of mucilage of Abelmoschus manihot, MEDIC root decrease under the influence of temperature and the other various physical and chemical factors. The rate of viscosity change of the mucilage have been measured at $5^{\circ}{\sim}50^{\circ}C$ in aqueous state under the various conditions. The results are as follows: 1. Relationship between rate of viscosity change of mucilage and temperature can be represent as Andrade equation. 2. Their activation energies of viscosity change of Abelmaschus maihot, MEDIC root A, B, C, D, E, F and G observed are 11.9, 12.1, 11.4, 12.1, 11.6, 13.8 and 13.2 Kcal/mole, respectively. And other activation parameters arc evaluated. 3. The activation energy of naturally mucilage are smaller than that of sterilized mucilage.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate the guidelines for Medic Work Table (MWT) based on the anthropometric data of medical technologists. Background: Users' anthropometric data such as sitting height, sitting elbow height, knee height, and so on are significant factors for designing comfortable and useful furniture. Thus, many guidelines for different types of desks and chairs based on the users' anthropometric data have been suggested to many researchers. However, few researches have been conducted to provide design guidelines for MWT for blood collecting task. Medical technologists often use their upper extremities to perform blood collecting task with high repetitions. These repeated motions could be a critical factor in the prevalence rate of Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders (WMSDs). Therefore, a study on ergonomic design of MWT would be essential in preventing the WMSDs and improving the quality of the working environment of medical technologists. Method: This study suggested design guidelines for ergonomic MWT by focusing on the heights of the upper side and underside, depths of the inside and outside, and width of MWT through anthropometric studies and literature reviews. Afterwards, a new MWT was made using the suggested design guidelines for this study. Five healthy medical technologists participated to evaluate the original MWT and new MWT. All participants took part in the range of motion (ROM) test, electromyography (EMG) muscle activity test, and usability test to validate the suggested guidelines in this study. EMG signals of related muscles (Flexor Carpi Ulnaris, Extensor Carpi Ulnaris, Deltoid Anterior, and Biceps Branchii) were recorded through the surface electromyography system from both the original MWT and the new MWT. The ROM test of the shoulder and elbow flexion was also assessed using motion sensors. Results: The newly designed MWT showed decreased ROMs of the shoulder and elbow up to 22% and 18% compared to the original MWT. The muscle activities in the new MWT also showed a decrease of 13% in Anterior Deltoid, 6% in Biceps Brachii, 5% in Flexor Carpi Ulnaris, and 8% in Extensor Carpi Ulnaris muscle groups, compared to the original MWT. In the usability test, the satisfaction score of the new MWT was also 56.1% higher than that of the original MWT. Conclusion: This study suggested guidelines for designing MWT and validating the guidelines through qualitative and quantitative analyses. The results of motion analysis, muscle activity, and usability tests demonstrated that the newly designed MWT may lead to less physical stress, less awkward posture, and better physical user interface. Application: The recommended guidelines of the MWT would be helpful information for designing an ergonomic MWT that reduces physical loads and improves the performance of many medical technologists.

The purpose of this review was to evaluate the effects of diabetes management program using mobile appllication. A systematic review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses: the PRISMA Statement was conducted. Studies published between 2004 and 2014 were reviewed using the following databases: Ovid, CINAHL and Cochrane library. The keywords used were (app*OR mobile) AND (nurs* OR health* OR medic*) AND (diabet*). Selected studies were assessed for methodological quality using Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN)' Checklist. Three hundred seventy five studies were identified, All the 3 studies found mobile application as a valid strategy on clinical usefulness in diabetes management. This review provides updated evidence for app-based management program in diabetes management. Further studies are needed to increase generalizability using randomized controlled trials, enough sample size. In addition, valid measurements are needed to assess the main outcomes.

This study was undertaken to develop a bed-type cycling system of lower limbs for rehabilitation. This system consists of two modes of cycling: active and passive. Different velocity and loads are provided for improving the muscle function recovery and increasing the muscular strength. To analyze the muscle activity pattern, we measured muscular activity of lower limbs in the rectus femoris (RF), biceps femoris (BF), tibialis anterior (TA), medial gastrocnemius (MG), and soleus (SOL), while cycling in the supine position, and based on the pedaling direction. A total of 18 young and 23 elderly, healthy subjects participated in this study. Muscle activity of MG muscles was significantly different in the two age groups. This study could provide the reference data to develop cycling exercises for lower limbs during rehabilitation of the elderly patients.

When the root of Abelmoschus manihot, MEDIC is stored in the water, the mucilage is extracted. The mucilage has contained some of free reducing sugars. We have investigated the change of free reducing sugars by the Bertrand method and also free reducing sugars are detected by paper chromatography and thin layer chromatography. The mucilage is isolated from the root of Abelmoschus manihot, MEDIC and its chemical components are detected. The mucilage and hydrolyzed products are examined by paper chromatography, thin layer chromatography and tested carbohydrates under the usual way. The results are as follow: 1. The mucilage has contained five kinds of monosaccharides which are rhamnose, xylose, arabinose, glucose, galactose and other three kinds of uronic acids. 2. In the mucilage, glucose is the most changeable sugar and the next are arabinase and galactose. 3. Uronic acids, pylose and rhamnose are remained comparatively longer than glucose, galactose and arabinose in the mucilage. 4. The hydrolyzed products of mucilage consisted of rhamnose, xylose, arabinose, glucose, gelactose, ribose, some uronic acids and other unknown compounds. 5. The essence of mucilage isolated from the root of Abelmoschus manihot, MEDIC is complex saccharide, glucose and ribose are newly certified. 6. We can guess that the components of the mucilage are rhamnose, xylose, arabinose, glucose, ribose, uronic acids and other unknown compounds.

In this paper, we present the diagnosis system for swallowing disorder. There are some types of diagnosis device for swallowing disorder, for example, the video fluoroscopy, the nuclear medicine inspection, the endoscopy, EMG and motion analysis. But these systems need heavy devices or have dangerous nuclear exposure, so are uncomfortable for handicapped person. Our system has advantages of simplicity, accuracy and quantitative analysis. In addition to the diagnosis aspect, this system can be used to biofeedback treatment.

본 논문은 국립 사이타마 병원(일본)이 계획하고 있는 새로운 전자차트 시스템 도입을 위한 병원정보 시스템 시방서(안)에 대한 개인정보 영향평가 평가방법과 결과를 정리한 것이다. 의료정보 시스템이 취급하는 데이터는 민감한 개인정보를 포함하고 있으며 한 번 유출된 개인 정보를 회수하기란 어렵다. 따라서 시스템 구축에 있어서 개인정보보호에 대한 중요성이 높아지고 있다. 개인정보 영향평가는 개인정보 유출에 대한 리스크를 시스템 가동 전에 평가하여 리스트를 경감하는 방법으로, 리스크를 가시화함으로써 사전에 리스크에 대한 대책방안을 마련할 수 있다.
